Pilosocereus armatus is a species of flowering plant in the cactus family Cactaceae, native to the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico. It was first described by Christoph Friedrich Otto in 1837 as Cereus armatus, and transferred to the genus Pilosocereus in 2021. It has been treated as Pilosocereus royenii, and Pilocereus royenii var. armatus is among its many synonyms. However, P. royenii is a name without a clear application.
